I sent three teens with a guide to Pirate’s Cove and they had the best time! Lakeside was prompt, courteous, and got them in the water efficiently. The kids left about 15 mins later than schedules and the guide was sure to give them the extra 15 mins at the end! So considerate! I felt much safer sending them out with a guide - money well spent! Thank you Lakeside Outfitters!

Great time and great service, I had reserved a tandem kayak and a solo kayak but they didn't have a tandem when I came to pick them up. The tandem was supposed to have already been returned and hadn't shown up. To resolve the issue they transported the solo kayak and gear to Salmon Run(where we were taking them anyways) and got a tandem that was scheduled to be picked up there. We were not out the full 4 hours and came back early, they had someone there to help pull the kayaks out and returned them for us. Overall great time, would definitely rent from them again.

Had a really positive experience renting paddle boards from Lakeside Outfitters. Even as they were experiencing an all day power outage they got my brother and me hooked up with paddle boards for a half day out on the the lake. Super friendly! Highly recommend!

My boyfriend and I rented a tandem kayak for 8hrs through their booking website (which I recommend you do ahead of time, it was super easy.) Before I booked I reached out to see what I needed to book and they were super friendly and helpful over the phone. Picking up the kayak was super easy, the rental included everything we needed & the staff were really helpful. Everything was in great shape & we had a wonderful time on the water. Drop off was even easier, we showed up, helped them unload and left. Next time I'm in town I am exclusively renting from them.

The process of booking in advance to rent kayaks online was very easy. Upon arrival, I was greeted by a friendly staff member who helped me check-in and get the kayaks loaded onto my car. Everything ran smoothly and efficiently. The staff was knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. I highly recommend and if I'm ever back in the area again, I'll book them again.

Really friendly and pretty easy to rent. The lake and river are a lot of fun and it’s awesome how easy it is to rent kayaks. You have to pay for delivery if you can’t haul them yourself but otherwise really great experience overall!

We had an amazing experience on our guided paddle board and kayak tour with Kelsey. She was very patient and let us have our full two hours even though we were 20 mins late. I would highly recommend them.

We rented a tandem kayak from Lakeside Outfitters and they were great. Helped us load it up on my Mazda 3 and it worked! Everyone was super nice too!

Came down to Summersville to do some drone flying ended up renting a kayak from these folks to see Long Point up close. Staff super friendly and courteous, equipment is solid and well maintained. Gift shop has a wide variety of things you'll need.

We rented kayaks for a paddle on the lake. The person who helped us was friendly and helped us get on our way pretty quickly. You put the kayaks on the roof of your car (they have foam blocks to protect your car and straps to secure them). The launch at the lake is about 1 mile down the road. The shop also has some shirts snacks etc.

They didn't seem the most organized though I'm sure they were very busy on a holiday weekend. Also, the website does say you have to transport your kayak yourself, but somehow I missed this. They were able to transport it for us, but charged us an additional $42. I'm glad we did it and we had a great time on the lake.

Great experience, rented a kayak and paddle board to do some climbing at the lake. the person who loaded our equipment also let us know where the easiest place to get the kayak launched was, while also being the closest to the best climbing areas. They also let me extend my rental mid day. 10/10 the only thing i can say is one of the straps in the kayak for the seat was broke but it didnt hinder us at all so wasnt a big deal. I will continue to rent from here every time I come to summersville

High quality gear at a reasonable rate. The staff were friendly and very helpful! We had lots of questions and they were prepared to answer them. We liked it so much we came back a second day (:
